Estonia to close all border crossings with Russia after attack on drone maker

Authorities say Russian intelligence service ordered attack Estonian PM links to Tallinn’s support for Ukraine

Estonia will close all its border crossings with Russia from 1 December after a suspected sabotage attack on a drone maker in the Baltic state over the weekend, which authorities said was ordered by Russia’s GRU military intelligence service.

On Saturday morning, eight people were detained during an attempted attack on Threod Systems, a defence company that manufactures long-range attack and reconnaissance drones. No injuries or damage were reported after the company’s security team responded to the incident.
